found a Via C3 700MHz (Samuel II, 100MHz FSB 1.6Volt) in a Thinclient. Fully working, but not listed on the homepage.

also.. i bought a Via C3 866MHz (Samuel II (?) ; 133MHz FSB, 1.35Volt!) on ebay... arrived today...
weird thing: front looks like a usual C3, but the back has an ES marking and a missing speed marking (like: 700MHz (100X7.0))
also it doesn't look like the engineering samples shown on cpu-world icon_weirdface

i guess the seller had no clue that it's an engineering sample Very Happy

Pics:


Sorry for the fish-eye effect on the last pic. had to hold a lens between my (mobile phone) camera and the CPU. without the lens the autofocus just won't focus at all...

BTW: i noticed the bent pin on the C3 866 after a closer look at the picture.... didnt notice it as i looked at the CPU itself *doh* Very Happy
-> not tested if it works yet but i just hope it does Wink

yes, this C3-866 is ES version.
but not every C3 that has no frequency marking on back is ES.

It's in rough shape, so Id value it at $25-$35
You still got a great deal Smile
Nicely done.
